4 Normal force on the friction tray does not directly affect the coefficients of static or kinetic friction.

Coefficients depend upon the nature of surfaces in contact and interactions between them. The force
simply plays a role in calculating the frictional forces.

For ranking friction trace from high to low coefficients of friction You would look at the surfaces.
Roughness and the material in contact. Such that. Surfaces with high coefficient typically have rough
textures and material that creates strong interlocking forces. And leading to greater friction surfaces
with low. Coke officiants are smooth and made of materials that reduce interlocking forces, resulting in
low. Friction.

6 The coefficient of static friction is greater than the coefficient of kinetic friction for the same materials.
This pattern indicate that it take more force to initiate motion( static friction) than to maintain motion
(kinetic friction )between two surfaces. For example. When you start your car from rest to accelerate,
you need to overcome the static friction between your tires and the road. This require a higher
coefficient of static friction to ensure that the tires grip the road well. Such that when you apply the
brakes you are dealing with kinetic friction the low. Coefficient of kinetic friction means that It is easy to
maintain control over the car Deceleration. Helping you to stop. More smoothly and safely. Different
tire designs and rubber compounds Provide different level of static and kinetic friction which. Affect
your vehicles performance in different ways.

7 The antilock brakes helps to prevent automobile accident by maintaining Steering control during
heartbreaking. When you're break hard, the wheel can log. Causing a loss of steering control. Anti-lock
brakes use sensors to monitor while speed and apply and release the brakes rapidly to prevent VL
lockup. Such that. It allows the driver to maintain control on the vehicle, reducing the risk of accident.
Especially during emergency stops and on a slippery. Roads.

8 The frictional force between two first surfaces. Is determined by coefficient of friction and the force
between them. The coefficient of friction is the property of material in contact and is independent of the
surface area of content. When the weight of an object is distributed over a large area such that the force
per unit area decreases, due to which the total force. Means the same. This means that frictional force
between the object and the surface does not change with the surface area of contact.

Advantages.

Wide tires on a car increases the surface area in contact with the ground. Which improves stability. This
is due to increased surface area that allows for a greater normal force. To be applied. Resulting in
greater frictional force.

Question #4. Did the normal force on the friction tray Affect either the coefficient of static friction or the
coefficient of kinetic friction? Explain.

Question #5. Rang the friction trace from highest coefficient to the lowest. What is physically different
with the surface with high coefficient versus the surface with the low coefficients explained?
